1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

A divalent metal ion-stimulated protein-serine/threonine phosphatase, PP1-arch, was purified approximately 1,000-fold from the extreme acidothermophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus (ATCC 35091). Purified preparations contained 40 to 70% of total protein as PP1-arch, as determined by assay-ing sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels for protein phosphatase activity. The first 25 amino acids of the protein's sequence were identified, as well as an internal sequence spanning some 20 amino acids. Using this information, we cloned the gene for PP1-arch via the application of PCR and conventional cloning techniques. The gene for PP1-arch predicted a protein of 293 amino acids that bore striking resemblance to the members of the major family of protein-serine/threonine phosphatases from members of the domain Eucarya, the PP1/2A/2B superfamily. The core of the protein, spanning residues 4 to 275, possessed 29 to 31% identity with these eucaryal protein phosphatases. Of the 42 residues found to be absolutely conserved among the known eucaryal members of the PP1/2A/2B superfamily, 33 were present in PP1-arch. If highly conservative substitutions are included, this total reached 37. The great degree of sequence conservation between molecules from two distinct phylogenetic domains implies that the members of this enzyme superfamily had evolved as specialized, dedicated protein phosphatases prior to the divergence of members of the Archaea and Eucarya from one another.
